Jersey is being used in a big
way this season. We see it, in
bathing suits, day dresses and
those for evening. It drapes
beautifully and is ideal for pack
ing or traveling.
Wrap-arounds are very popu

accustomed to think of wrap
arounds as either house dresses
or skirts over play suits but
they are being shown in the
shops now in colorful fabrics
that call for shopping expedi
tions.

Jaycettes Honor Miss Watauga
At A Luncheon Last Saturday
At a luncheon in her honor
Saturday at I^liday Inn, Miss
Myra Davis, Miss Watauga,
gave the following response to
her Jaycette hostesses and well
wishers.
“You know it is very hard to
stand up in front of a group, who
have done so much for you, and
tell them how thankful you are. I
don’t think that Webster’s Dic
tionary has come up with any
word to express such great
thanks. If they had, I am sure I
could use that word now.
“There have been so many
people who have helped me in
so many ways through the past
six months since I was crown
ed Miss Watauga County.
“Our town merchants, with
gifts and generous help, have
made my being your queen a
very great pleasure.
“I would like to express my
thanks to the Jaycees and Jay
cettes who have given me such
loyal support and help whenever
I needed it. I would especially
like to thank my Daddy and Mama
Jaycee and Jaycette, Mr. and
Mrs. Otis Strother. These two
marvelous people have given so
freely of their time and effort
to make my reign as Miss Wa
tauga County more lasting and
more enjoyable.
“Last but not least, I would
like to thank my parents, be
cause without them I just
wouldn’t have been possible.
They both have been such great
understanding people; both in
time and work and, of course,
those little money matters which
have to be taken care of, and I
love them both very much for
being so patient with me.
“One week from Monday, on
June 10, I will leave for the Miss
North Carolina Pageant. I will
take with me more confidence
because the people at home are
behind me. I am going with the
idea that I haven’t been beaten
yet. I hope to bring the crown
home to you. Maybe I won’t, but
I will be down there giving it all
“I would like to end by using
a verse which expresses what
I have tried to tell you in very
few words.
